The most important thing you thought you knew about Qi2 is wrong: Qi2 charging doesn't mean magnetic charging!
Today I learned that there are products that support Qi2 wireless charging but which DON'T have magnets. You likely thought magnetic charging was a requirement of Qi2, but that's definitely not the case!
According to the Wireless Power Consortium, while most registered products certified to the Qi2 spec include magnets, some do not. These non-magnetic Qi2 products may use other methods for aligning chargers and receivers that differ from Qi2 products with magnets.
To differentiate between magnetic (Qi v2.0 MPP) and non-magnetic (Qi v2.0 EPP) products, the WPC requires a different logo and specific verbiage to be included on the package: “This product is built using the latest Qi2 standard but may not include all available Qi2 features."
The WPC actually mentioned this fact in a press release back in November, though they said at the time that Qi v2.0 EPP products will use the old Qi logo; sometime after, they changed the requirement for Qi v2.0 EPP products to use the new logo shown above instead.
From my digging through the WPC database, the vast majority of Qi2 products support MPP, though there are some that do not. Keep an eye out, and don't assume that Qi2 support = magnetic charging/MagSafe compatible!

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE Powered by Motorola
It took Motorola just 6 months to relaunch the same smartphone (G34) with the same SoC at the same price as G45. Even the dimensions of both the smartphones are same 😭
Funfact: Since G34 is powered by Snapdragon 695, the upcoming Moto G35 will be powered by UNISOC T760 SoC which is surprisingly more powerful than SD 695

TL;DR: Krutrim Cloud: Free for Developers, but What Actually Works?
Krutrim Cloud has provided free credits, ₹10000, till Diwali. Only Language Translation/Interpretation and a few models actually work. Their "krutrim/Krutrim-spectre-v2" model is essentially GPT-3, which also gives incorrect information and hallucinates as well. Their Language translation service, however, works fine, which has only a few languages and uses their own "Krutrim-Translate" model.
Finally, their Compute service for virtual machines through VMs has been nothing but a mess. They give ₹10,000 in free credits, but the VMs are just stuck at "In Progress". (Confirmed with @TejasXD and @Raveen2k3). Now (at the time of writing this post), no VMs except Bare Metal GPU VMs are available to create. (Confirmed with @ardwivedi16)
To summarise, Krutrim's own model feels more like a rebranded GPT-3 than an AI made in India. Their Compute service is already wrong on so many levels making it hard to ascertain what value they offer.
No hate intended. This is my own experience and I apologise if I posted some incorrect information.

Poco's Desperate Attempt to Bury the Truth: A Shameful Cover-up of a Fatal Smartphone Explosion
Recently, a guy in Tamil Nadu, India died while riding on bike as the Poco M4 smartphone exploded inside his pocket. This was such a disturbing incident that many people shared about it on twitter. However, instead of helping his loved ones in some way or atleast showing sympathy , the Poco team is asking tipsters to remove the news about this horrible incident and bury the truth since this will impact their upcoming launches and sale. Even after tipsters denied their request, they still keeps on asking the same.
Apart from Poco X3 Pro, the Poco F3 GT also suffered from motherboard failure issues and Poco Team is simply ignoring the tipster request to help their own users & is even keeping user's dead F3 GT for more than 21 days even for repairs

BREAKING: App Store, iMessages, Photos, Camera, and Safari apps can be uninstalled
iPhone owners in the EU can already set defaults for browser, mail app, app marketplace & contactless payments
But to comply with DMA, "For users in the EU, iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 will include a new Default Apps section in Settings that lists defaults available to each user. Users will soon get new default settings for dialing phone numbers, sending messages, translating text, navigation, managing passwords, keyboards & call spam filters"
Additionally, "the App Store, iMessages, Photos, Camera and Safari apps will now be "deletable" for users in the EU."
If a user deletes the App Store app, it can be reinstalled from the Settings app
Also, "developers of browsers in the EU will have additional information about their browser shown to users on the choice screen & will get access to more data about the performance of the choice screen."
NEXT-UP: The EU will allow users to delete iOS and install Android
